ABSTRACT
We describe a novel analytical approach to gene recognition based on cross-species comparison We first undertook a comparison of orthologous genomic look from human and mouse, studying the extent of similarity in the number, size and sequence of exons and introns We then developed an approach for recognizing genes within such orthologous regions, by first aligning the regions using an iterative global alignment system and then identifying genes based on conservation of exonic features at aligned positions in both species The alignment and gene recognition are performed by new programs called GLASS and ROSETTA, respectively ROSETTA performed well at exact identification of coding exons in 117 orthologous pairs tested.
